September 14, 2012: Ottawa

I was saddened to hear of the passing of former Alberta Premier Peter Lougheed.  On my travels throughout Canada and Alberta, I came to appreciate Mr. Lougheed’s reputation as a truly great Canadian leader. Everywhere I have traveled in Alberta there is evidence of his legacy – from the province’s thriving economy and development of its natural resources to its rich arts and cultural scene.  Julie and I send our heartfelt condolences to his wife Jeanne, his family and friends, and to all Albertans.
